Food Facts

I picked up this retirement magazine in a restaurant and saw this product inside, coconut sugar. It looks interesting, if a bit expensive for sugar.



Go here for some interesting food facts from The Southern Lady.  I didn't know or forgot most of them!  For example, peanuts are legumes, not nuts.  Corn always has an even number of rows on each cob.  Apple seeds are poisonous.

I also learned from an article in the newspaper that coumarin in cinnamon causes liver damage in some people. So I guess everything in moderation.
